Chapter 308: The Bank Card!!

Start from the beginning
                                    

He was puzzled. “If he’s a customer, what is he running away for?”

The manager smacked the security guard angrily. “Isn’t it because you were chasing him? Of course, he would run away if you chase after him!”

“… Really?” asked the security guard.

The manager sighed. He looked down at the bank card in his hand and couldn’t help but sigh emotionally. “Do you know that only five cards like this one here have been issued ever since our bank was established?”

The security guard: “?”

The manager stared at the card. “Although this is a supplementary card, there are no more than twenty supplementary cards of this card series in the bank! And this is on a global scale, no less! That’s why I have to personally attend to the customer. But great, you’ve actually scared him off! I have to report this to the higher-ups as soon as possible!”

He turned around and returned to the bank. Then, he got the security guard to show him the surveillance camera footage. “Hurry and find out who it is! We have to pay them a visit!”

Louis hadn’t expected any of this at all when he first entered the bank, so his looks were totally exposed.

The manager got a friend to investigate who he was.

Louis could be considered someone with status in New York, so they quickly found out who he was.

The bank manager looked at his information. A short silence later, he said, “C’mon, let’s go to the Smiths now. We have to retain that important customer and apologize to the VIP!”

Louis stopped and started to pant heavily after he ran a great distance away.

He looked behind him. When he found that no one had caught up to him, he was relieved.

But!

He took out his cell phone and dialed Chester’s number with his trembling fingers. “I’m in trouble! I’m in trouble!”

Chester asked, “What’s wrong?”

Louis thought for a moment and decided that he mustn’t rat Nora out. Even if she had stolen someone’s card, he had to cover up for her.

After all, he was the one who had caused this.

He took a deep breath. “Don’t ask. Give me all the money you have. I’m going to go on the run!”

“… But I only have 300 dollars! I’ll transfer it to you!” said Chester.

“Get lost! Why are you even more pitiful than I am?!”

Louis hung up on him straightaway.

If he fled, he would be a wanted criminal. This way, it wouldn’t affect Nora. Besides, wasn’t the pugilistic world what Quentin loved the most anyway?

Didn’t this mean he was going to wander the world now?

Come to think of it, it sounded pretty exciting.

The main problem was, how was he going to escape if he didn’t have any money?

While thinking about it, he drove quietly to the Smiths’ manor.

In any case, he would just go to Warren and borrow some money first!

Warren was easy-going and easy to bluff. He definitely wouldn’t stand by and watch him starve to death.


After driving back to the Smiths, in order not to make too much noise, he parked the car outside the door and sneaked in quietly by himself.

He was about to go up the stairs to look for Warren when he was discovered.

Yvonne looked at him. “What are you sneaking around for, Louis?”

Louis: “!!”

What bad luck!

How was it that he always ran into her every time he was down on his luck?

With an evasive look in his eyes, Louis replied, “It’s nothing.”

Yvonne knew at once from his behavior that he must have gotten himself in trouble. She immediately said, “You must have done something bad again, right? See if I don’t tell Joel about it!”

Louis snapped at once. “All you know is snitching on others! What else do you know besides being a tattletale?!”

Yvonne looked at him up and down a few times. Then, she cast her eyes down and suddenly asked, “Did Nora’s bank card get you into trouble?”

Although Louis was mischievous, didn’t like studying, and had a weird personality, he had only become like that thanks to her ‘schemes’.

No one knew better than Yvonne how kind Louis actually was.

He would always play hero and speak up whenever he ran into trouble in the past, yet he simply refused to say even a word about it today. Therefore, she decided to simply sound him out.

Unexpectedly, the look in Louis’s eyes suddenly changed the moment she said that, and he said, “No, it didn’t!”

Yvonne frowned. “So, it really is because of that bank card!”

Louis: “!!”

Right at this moment, a butler came over hesitantly from outside. “Ms. Yvonne, the manager of the New York branch of ABC Bank is here. They say that they are here for Mr. Louis.”

Louis: “???”

Had they found him so soon?

He wanted to slip away, but Yvonne grabbed his collar and said, “What are you running for, Louis? What’s there that you can’t explain properly to everyone? Since they are looking for you, then let’s go over and have a look!”

Something must have gone wrong with Nora’s card!

And judging from how panicky Louis was, it seemed like a pretty big problem.

Let’s see how she would gain a foothold in the Smiths now!!
